I was a bit surprised at the intolerance and bickering of some, but understand they work hard to keep their yards looking nice. I asked myself if I wanted to join a community like that, but realize there are many, many people all with differing opinions. Pets are a wonderful part of our families, and one has to be committed to taking care of them responsibly, seeing to their needs, and reaping all the rewards they have to offer. No matter what the species! Infringing on your neighbors is never a good thing, be it pets or children or even oneself!
So I will come to TV in May with no preconceived notions and decide if this is indeed as nice as I have heard it to be! I look forward to my visit and experiencing all your communities have to offer!  |
Hello hotrodgirl -- I'm in Schaumburg so we are almost neighbors. Love to go to Ravinia in the summer. Tickets for the concerts in Ravinia go on sale next week I believe. Hope you enjoy your Lifestyle Preview Visit and don't drink all of the Arnold Palmers as I will be renting in TV in June, and I love to drink an Arnold Palmer (if you don't know what an Arnold Palmer is, order one at one of the restaurants in TV) -- quite refreshing on a hot summer day!
